I'm out of clinic for a couple of days, but am picking up messages. My younger daughter is having surgery to repair an open unhealed collarbone fracture. No wonder the past 6 months have been sore for her 😞.

Always best to get things you're unsure about checked over by a GP or nurse.

This young lad, Archie, is an inspiration. He swam nationally with my daughter's, and went from strength to strength to Commonwealth Level until diagnosed at 22 with inoperable brain tumours.

Is it time to change your routine?

"I guess I'm just getting old" is a common phrase I hear from clients attempting to explain their symptoms. However - getting old doesn't cause injuries. Being older, though, does mean you've had much more time and opportunity to build up trauma in the your body.

Remember - the age of a car doesn't determine the required maintenance schedule - your driving and mileage do!

So book yourself in, get yourself checked over, and ease some of those stresses and strains you might be feeling. Be proactive - you look after your eyesight, teeth, and car. Take time to look after your muscles. Build a schedule in to look after yourself.

Today was time out for me to recharge and rebalance. To invest in myself. Sometimes we are so busy we forget that we need selfcare too. A bit of meditation, a bit of dancing, a bit of sound, a bit of massage. Why not 🥰

Remember to care for your mind as well as care for your body. You can't pour from an empty cup🫖☕️.

TAKING ON CLIENTS IN OLDMELDRUM, TARVES, FYVIE, TURRIFF, INVERURIE NEWMACHAR, UDNY AND SURROUNDING AREAS

I've had a few clients in recently with a condition called Fibromyalgia.

Fibromyalgia is a long term condition that causes widespread body pain, fatigue, sleep, cognitive issues as well as a range of other possible symptoms. The condition tends to vary from person to person and some days people can feel different to other days. Massage therapy can be a helpful complementary treatment to reduce muscle tension, increase circulation and reduce those feel good hormones to relieve pain and boost mood.

Some facts about fibromyalgia are:
-Fibromyalgia tends to affect more women than men.
- It is now a diagnosis which can be diagnosed in primary care and does not need referral to specialist rheumatology services.
- Although there is not one thing to cure fibromyalgia, the strongest evidence shows that exercise and activity management is most helpful along with other self-management strategies.
